Was sagen andere Religionen

[Buddha]
The Blessed One then ordered the monks, "Behold monks. a pandaka
(sexual deviant/homosexual) is one who is not to be ordained. Monks
should not give them ordination and those who have been ordained must be
made to disrobe" (Vinaya, Vol. 4, pp. 141-142).

[Koran] "We
also sent Lut: He said to his people: Do ye commit lewdness such as no
people in creation (ever) committed before you? For ye practice your
lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people
transgressing beyond bounds. And his people gave no answer but this:
they said, "Drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want
to be clean and pure!"" (Qur'an 7:80-82)

[Baha'is Religion House of Justice Proclamation]
"Baha'i teachings on sexual morality centre on [opposite-sex] marriage
and the family as the bedrock of the whole structure of human society,
and are designed to protect and strengthen that divine institution. Thus
Baha'i Law restricts permissible sexual intercourse to that between a
man and the woman to whom he is married." ~ Baha'is Faith

[Sikhism]
In 2005, the world's highest Sikh religious authority described
homosexuality as "against the Sikh religion and the Sikh code of conduct
and totally against the laws of nature," and called on Sikhs to support
laws against homosexuality.http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2005/03/28/sikhguy-050328.html

[Jainism]
Chastity is one of the five virtues in the fundamental ethical code of
Jainism. For laypersons, the only appropriate avenue for sexuality is
within marriage, and homosexuality is believed to lead to negative
karma.Website: What Jains believe. Jain author Duli Chandra Jain wrote
in 2004 that homosexuality and transvestism "stain one's thoughts and
feelings" because they involve sexual passion.Duli Chandra Jain, Answers
To Some Frequently Asked Questions, in 'Religious Ethics: A
Sourcebook', edited by Dr. Arthur B. Dobrin, published by Hindi Granth
Karyalaya, Mumbai, 2004.

[Taoism] Taoism stresses the
relationship between yin and yang: two opposing forces which maintain
harmony through balance. The Taoist tradition holds that males need the
energies of females, and vice versa, in order to bring about balance,
completion and transformation. Heterosexuality is seen as the physical
and emotional embodiment of the harmonious balance between yin and yang.
Homosexuality on the other hand is often seen as the union of two yins
or two yangs, and therefore unbalanced. People in same-sex relationships
or people who engage in same-sex sexual behaviour are thought to be
susceptible to illness.Taoist Sexual Magic 5 â€" Ancient Views of Modern

[Judaism] "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination." ~ Leviticus 18:22

[Christianity]
Romans 1:26-27: "For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For
even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature.
Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in
their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful,
and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due."

"Homosexuality is a misguided search for love and affirmation in sexual behavior that is contrary to nature." - Frank Worthen, Father of the Ex-Gay Movement in the USA

"Interesting
that they call it "gay pride" because pride is the worst of sins and
the root of all other sins - in essence a stubborn rebellion against God
and his commandments. This parade in Tel Aviv is awful and shameful not
only because Israel promotes
sexual perversion and the distortion of God's purpose for the human
person, but it's even worse because they celebrate it with "pride".
Remember that God will extend His protection upon you, Israel, only to
the extent that you keep his commandments. In other words, you are
inviting disaster upon your nation. Repent!"

Andre Villeneuve on the Gay Pride in Israel

"What works best? You need a love greater than your desire for the same sex. A love that transcends everything. A love that goes beyond your wildest imagination and dreams. A love and a deep desire for God."
